Hamas declared that it would postpone freeing more Israeli hostages.
Israel has breached the conditions of the truce agreement regarding humanitarian delivery to northern Gaza, according to a statement from its military wing.
Israel has not offered a statement. It was anticipated that a group of up to 14 captives will be freed on Saturday.
As per the agreement mediated by Qatar, Israel is willing to free a number of Palestinian detainees.
There is a four-day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, and today is the second of those days.
24 hostages and 39 Palestinian inmates were freed on Friday.
1,200 people were killed in Hamas attacks on October 7, and another 240 more were taken hostage.
Since then, Israel’s retaliation campaign has claimed the lives of almost 14,500 people, according to Gaza’s health ministry, which is governed by Hamas.
According to a senior Hamas source who spoke to the BBC, Israeli violations of the humanitarian truce deal, specifically barring agreed-upon relief trucks from accessing northern Gaza, are the reason behind the delay in the hostage exchange this evening.
According to him, out of 100 trucks, Israel permitted only three to enter northern Gaza.
Additionally, he said that Israel had flown drones over southern Gaza in breach of the ceasefire agreement.
Israel has denied breaking the terms of the cease-fire.
